Workflow monitor interacts with multiple AWS services to create signal maps, build CloudWatch and EventBridge resources, and AWS CloudFormation templates. Because workflow monitor interacts with a wide range of services, specific AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies must be assigned for these services. The following examples indicate the necessary IAM policies for both administrator and operator IAM roles.
Administrator IAM policy
The following example policy is for an administrator-level workflow monitor IAM policy. This role allows for the creation and management of workflow monitor resources and the supported service resources that interact with workflow monitor.
{ "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "cloudwatch:List*", "cloudwatch:Describe*", "cloudwatch:Get*", "cloudwatch:PutAnomalyDetector", "cloudwatch:PutMetricData", "cloudwatch:PutMetricAlarm", "cloudwatch:PutCompositeAlarm", "cloudwatch:PutDashboard", "cloudwatch:DeleteAlarms", "cloudwatch:DeleteAnomalyDetector", "cloudwatch:DeleteDashboards", "cloudwatch:TagResource", "cloudwatch:UntagResource" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "cloudformation:List*", "cloudformation:Describe*", "cloudformation:CreateStack", "cloudformation:UpdateStack", "cloudformation:DeleteStack", "cloudformation:TagResource", "cloudformation:UntagResource" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "cloudfront:List*", "cloudfront:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "ec2:DescribeNetworkInterfaces" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "events:List*", "events:Describe*", "events:CreateEventBus", "events:PutRule", "events:PutTargets", "events:EnableRule", "events:DisableRule", "events:DeleteRule", "events:RemoveTargets", "events:TagResource", "events:UntagResource" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "logs:Describe*", "logs:Get*", "logs:TagLogGroup", "logs:TagResource", "logs:UntagLogGroup", "logs:UntagResource" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediaconnect:List*", "mediaconnect:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "medialive:*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediapackage:List*", "mediapackage:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediapackagev2:List*", "mediapackagev2:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediapackage-vod:List*", "mediapackage-vod:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediatailor:List*", "mediatailor:Describe*", "mediatailor:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "resource-groups:ListGroups", "resource-groups:GetGroup", "resource-groups:GetTags", "resource-groups:GetGroupQuery", "resource-groups:GetGroupConfiguration", "resource-groups:CreateGroup", "resource-groups:UngroupResources", "resource-groups:GroupResources", "resource-groups:DeleteGroup", "resource-groups:UpdateGroupQuery", "resource-groups:UpdateGroup", "resource-groups:Tag", "resource-groups:Untag" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "s3:*" ], "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::workflow-monitor-templates*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "sns:TagResource", "sns:UntagResource" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "tag:Get*", "tag:Describe*", "tag:TagResources", "tag:UntagResources" ], "Resource": "*" } ] }
Operator IAM policy
The following example policy is for an operator-level workflow monitor IAM policy. This role allows for limited and read-only access to the workflow monitor resources and the supported service resources that interact with workflow monitor.
{ "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "cloudwatch:List*", "cloudwatch:Describe*", "cloudwatch:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "cloudformation:List*", "cloudformation:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "cloudfront:List*", "cloudfront:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "ec2:DescribeNetworkInterfaces" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "events:List*", "events:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "logs:Describe*", "logs:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediaconnect:List*", "mediaconnect:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "medialive:List*", "medialive:Get*", "medialive:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediapackage:List*", "mediapackage:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediapackagev2:List*", "mediapackagev2:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediapackage-vod:List*", "mediapackage-vod:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "mediatailor:List*", "mediatailor:Describe*", "mediatailor:Get*" ], "Resource": "*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "s3:Get*", "s3:List*" ], "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::workflow-monitor-templates*" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "tag:Get*", "tag:Describe*" ], "Resource": "*" } ] }
